Allies

  1. Allies have become more and more expensive. People used to be able to go to the ally hire list and hire a bunch of new 10,000 gold allies. Allies were not so high priced as they are now, and people were able to have allies a little earlier. I would like to propose a solution.

    If prices depreciated over time, then ally prices would be more stable. If the depreciation time was set to 2 months (2 months as a random amount of time), then after two months of unchanging ownership, a person's price would depreciate. It would slow down some of the difficulties of dealing with price, and it would also encourage the ally trade.

    By the way, this is not comprehensive. The time until depreciation could have a more complex system. The time period could be perhaps proportional (or inversely proportional) to the square of the number of times the person was bought within the past three or so months. (The fact that it might help too much people with volleying might be a factor) Or being active could speed up the period. Perhaps higher priced people's prices could depreciate slightly faster.

    I think something should be done to improve the ally trade for weaker players.
     
  2. Ok so. What happens when I buy a 2t ally and own them for "some amount of time" and their price goes down? Did i just lose gold? Also this can't be put into effect as it would mess up the most valuable Leader Board
     
  3. Probably the worst suggestion I've ever heard
     
  4. I second that️
     
  5. I agree that it is getting harder for new players to get mp with prices going up, but this is a poor suggestion as the logic in it is poor. If price goes down, are we losing plunder? How much is it going down? Ect
